Abstract

|
Purpose: The feasibility of a rat choledochojejunostomy (CJ) training model was investigated, as an introductory model to microsurgery for general surgeons.
Methods: Roux-en-Y CJ was performed on 20 rats. Interrupted 10-0 prolene sutures were used to perform CJ. The animals were observed for 7 days and sacrificed and examined.
Results: The rats were divided into 2 groups of 10 based on surgical order. The CJ time showed a significant decrease from 36.2 ¡¾ 5.6 minutes in group 1 to 29.4 ¡¾ 5.7 minutes in group 2 (P = 0.015). The bile leakage rate was 40% in group 1 and 10% in group 2. The survival time was 5.4 ¡¾ 2.2 days in group 1 and 7 days in group 2 (P = 0.049).
Conclusion: The rat CJ training model is a feasible introductory model for general surgeons with no previous experience in microsurgery.
